Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 106

,Coolest Girl in Town

Elise was rather stunned to see Jack there. “I’m heading home,” she explained. “Let me send you back,
then,” Jack offered. He hastily opened the car door, and Elise got into the car. Only then did she realize
that Alexander was also sitting in the MPV. Despite the sense of awkwardness that she felt, Elise took
the initiative to greet him. “I didn’t know you were here!” Alexander was flipping through some
documents, and he merely responded with a curt nod.

Jack was the one who explained the situation. “I went to pick Alexander up from the airport earlier, and
I happened to bump into you here. But you don’t seem to be in a good mood. You look really sad.”
“Since when did you learn to care about others? You’ve never treated me this way in the past!”

Elise teased him. Jack shifted uncomfortably in his seat. “You should learn to appreciate my kindness
toward you, Elise. I’m just caring for you as a friend. Furthermore, you used to be so ugly, old-
fashioned and noisy. Now, you’re just as ugly and old-fashioned, but I’ve finally realized that you’re a
pretty decent person.”

This sounded better to Elise’s ears. “Thanks! My good friend told me that you’re releasing a new song
soon. Congratulations.” The smile on Jack’s face widened upon the mention of his new song. He
seemed especially excited even at the thought of it. “Thank you! You should come over to hang out
during the press conference for the new song.” Elise rejected him immediately. “No thanks. I’m afraid
your fans might murder me. However, my friend is a pretty huge fan of yours.

If you have tickets, can you give me two of them so that I can give it to her? She’ll be really pleased.”
Jack wasn’t a stingy man and he immediately got his manager, Ronald, to hand him two tickets. “It’s
next Wednesday. Make sure your friend shows up then!” “Thank you,” Elise uttered as she took the
tickets from him. Jack raised an eyebrow before he smiled. “You’re welcome.” Right then, Ronald
spoke up from his spot in the passenger’s seat.



“Hey, Jack. Charlene just reposted your tweet. Do you want to respond to her?” “She can repost
whatever she wishes to. It’s none of my business. I can’t be bothered to respond,” he uttered flatly.
Ronald was rather troubled by his response. “She used to be one of the most well-known singers. In
some ways, she’s your senior. You should show her some respect,” Ronald urged.

However, Jack continued to speak with the same nonchalant attitude. “She got rich off of one song.
Apart from that, she just tries to hop onto all of the trendiest things in the industry. If I respond to her
now, the media will start writing reports about our scandal tomorrow. I don’t want to have anything to do
with her.” After wiping the sweat off his forehead, Ronald decided he would no longer insist on
responding to Charlene. “Fine. Let’s just ignore her, then.” As the two men had their conversation, they
didn’t realize the grim look on Elise’s face.

It was the second time that she had overheard Charlene’s name that day. It’s been a while,
Charlene. Jack dropped Elise and Alexander at Griffith Residence. Once they arrived home, they were
greeted by an overly-excited Jonah. “Did you get to meet my old friend, Alexander? How is he?” “Mr.
Burton is well and healthy. He kept asking for you, and he really hopes that you’ll get a chance to visit
him in Provence,” Alexander replied. Jonah let out a longing sigh upon hearing his grandson’s words.
“That old man still thinks about me, huh? Well, I don’t know if I’ll be able to see him again with this
weak body of mine.”

“What are you talking about, Grandpa? You’re so healthy—I’m sure you can live to see yourself turning
100 years old,” Elise uttered sincerely. Alexander added, “That’s right, Grandpa. I can go over with you
next time.” Jonah took a glance at Elise and Alexander before he let out another long sigh. “I’m old
now, Alexander. There’re a lot of things that I want to do, but so many things that I don’t have the
energy to complete. You’re getting pretty old too—it’s about time you started your own family.”

Alexander showed great resistance toward the topic of marriage. “I have my own opinions and plans for
this, Grandpa. Don’t you worry,” he muttered with a frown. Jonah had no idea what was going on in
Alexander’s mind. “You should focus on your future, Alexander. Let the past be the past. You need to



learn to cherish those who are right in front of your eyes!” However, Alexander didn’t seem to get the
underlying meaning behind his grandfather’s words.

“I got it,” he uttered simply. Elise, on the other hand, seemed to notice something. After their
conversation, she excused herself and returned to her room. I can’t believe I’ve been here for six
months already. Now, I might miss this place too much if I were to leave. … Once Alexander and Elise
retreated to their own rooms, Jonah picked the phone up to make an international call. “Both the kids
are home, Linus.”

“That’s great. I had been worried about them, but I’m glad to hear that they both got home. By the way,
your grandson seems like a decent guy. I think he’d be a good match for my girl.” Jonah was pleased to
hear this, and he laughed heartily before responding. “I’ve told you about this before—I’m certain that I
want Elise as my daughter-in-law. It’s just a matter of time before this happens.” “You’re a cunning old
man, eh? Well, just to make things clear, I’ll never let Alexander go if he dares to mistreat my Elise,
okay?”

Jonah nodded in agreement. “You don’t need to do it on your own. If that brat ever wrongs my precious
Elise, I’ll give him a good spanking.” Linus seemed pleased to hear this. “You’d better stick to your
word, old man.” Midway through their conversation, Jonah began to frown as he recalled his concerns.
“Hey, Linus. Since we’re on this topic, I just realized that both the kids hasn’t shown much progress
despite our huge efforts to bring them together. You used to be a pro in relationships—you were
practically undefeated when it came to girls!

Do you have any tricks on how to bring them together?” Linus chuckled upon hearing Jonah’s words. “I
can’t believe you’re asking me for help, old man.” Jonah had to maintain his pride. “I’m not asking for
help. I’m just telling you to act as the middleman who creates sparks between them.” Linus scoffed.
“You’re so harsh with your words. Back when I was young, I…” Linus was about to continue when
Helen entered the room. He had no choice but to swallow his words and return to his cowardly self.



“Okay. Teenagers mingle around better with one another, so we should get them to do that. We old
men shouldn’t butt in. However, you should get your grandson to feel a sense of urgency.

My precious Elise is a really wonderful woman—you’d never find someone as good if you let her go.”
After finishing his words, Linus ended the call, leaving Jonah with the beeping sound of the dial tone.
Jonah was determined. It seems like I have to work harder to bring the two of them together. I’ll start
getting worried if their relationship doesn’t go anywhere soon! Immediately after that, Jonah came up
with a plan.

He called the housekeeper to come over, and they both whispered into each other’s ears for a while. At
the same time, Matthew, who had been standing by the corner of the stairs, overheard all of their
conversations. His face darkened. So, Grandpa had plans of matchmaking Alexander and Elise all
along. That way, he’d be able to transfer the Griffith Family’s shares to her. Yet, I’ve been making an
issue about Elise. My plans have gone wrong this time around. Matthew clutched his fists silently. If
Grandpa never had any plans for me to begin with, then what’s the purpose of me staying in this
household?

After all, I’m nothing but an illegitimate son to these people. A malicious smirk formed on Matthew’s
face as his gaze darkened. The next day, Elise handed the tickets that she had gotten from Jack to
Mikayla once she arrived at school. “Here you go. Tickets to your husband’s press conference for his
new song.” Mikayla’s eyes lit up immediately. “Oh my gosh! I love you, Elise! I queued on his official
website for hours last night, but I still didn’t manage to buy the tickets in the end. I was so close to
buying it at a higher price. I can’t believe you got tickets for me!”

“Jack gave them to me,” Elise uttered without bothering to conceal the truth. Mikayla was even more
excited upon hearing this. “Are you serious? Did my husband give them to you? He’s so kind! He gave
me tickets because he knew I couldn’t get them!” Upon finishing her words, Mikayla gave the tickets a
huge and wet kiss.



Elise shook her head helplessly, then shifted her gaze back to her question paper. Ever since
Samantha got into the production team and Riley stopped coming for classes, Elise was able to place
all of her focus on her studies. She was enjoying her school life.
